Webgame Wednesday: Discount Mayonnaise

Discount Mayonnaise doesn't give you a lot of clues as to what manner of game is behind the puzzling title. Boot up the game and you'll be greeted by a nice little cartoon art-inspired platform shooter in which you're asked to navigate a series of maze-like platforms, upgrade weapons, dispatch waves of enemies and ... SWEET ZOMBIE CHRIST, is that a gigantic worm chasing me!?! Discount Mayonnaise turns out to be a majorly high-pressure action title. Slacken your pace for even a second and you'll be swallowed by a giant worm straight out of Frank Herbert's nightmares. It's like being stuck in a zombie movie--while Godzilla is chasing you. Pump those crazy legs already and get shooting!
